Something that makes you annoyed as hell when it really shouldn’t, or something that makes you feel like a nerd for getting annoyed at it.

I’ll start with a combination of the two: When people call chiptune music “bitcrunch”

    I think you’re missing the increased utility that describing something as exponential has though. Compounding and increasing with greater intensity isn’t really an easy concept to explain. Sure you can’t "prove"that something is exponential with just two points of data, but the demonstration of those concepts within one word is highly useful and effective as an intensifier.

    Although, the more I work through the term the more I can see why it could be frustrating. thinkin-lenin

    I guess this is the benefit of not studying math lol.
